Is this the best conference in the country?\u00a0 This is one of only two conferences that I will even entertain that notion, but I think I would take the Big Ten…though it’s really close.\u00a0 The 10-team Big 12 opens tonight with its bottom four teams playing a couple of opening round games.\u00a0 The fall to 10 teams makes for a pretty uninteresting opening day in the Big XII tournament, as one game is a total mismatch, and the other is a fight to see who gets to get pummeled by Kansas tomorrow.<\/p>\n
As for the title picks in the Big XII this year, it is just exactly split down the middle between #1 Kansas and #2 Missouri, with the lone dissident being Lynch, who went with Baylor.<\/p>\n

\n<\/em>With all due respect to Pitt, UCLA, Arizona, and UConn, I think that Texas A&M might be the most disappointing team in the nation.\u00a0 OU has looked real good and real bad – sometimes within a couple of days.\u00a0 The winner here gets #1 Kansas tomorrow.\u00a0 8 people have Texas A&M in the mild upset (Bry, Dave, J, Lohse, Primm, RSmith, Stri, Teddy).\u00a0 No one has either of these teams beating Kansas tomorrow.<\/p>\n
\n<\/em>TTech is in the conversation for worst major conference team in the nation.\u00a0 And, OSU has Keaton Page – who is Jimmer without the Latterday Saints.\u00a0 The winner here will get to deal with #2 Missouri.\u00a0 Teddy is the only one that took a shot at TTech here.\u00a0 Dave and J have a lot at stake here, as they both have the Cowboys upsetting Mizzou in tomorrow’s quarterfinal.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
